The Amalgamated Housing Cooperative in the Bronx owes thousands of dollars in refunds to dozens of former tenants, the CBS New York Investigates Team has learned.
NEW YORK -- The Amalgamated Housing Cooperative in the Bronx owes thousands of dollars to dozens of former tenants.It's an affordable housing co-op that was once praised by President Franklin Delano Roosevelt as a success story, but CBS New York investigative reporter Tim McNicholas is uncovering the historic property's financial woes.
Tracy Arce's late father lived in the co-op, and she says when she started sorting out the money he left behind, she learned the co-op owes the family $28,000. It's money she's still fighting for more than a year after her father's death.'On top of all the other stress you have and the grief you have of a parent dying, closing out the affairs, they added so much unnecessary stress,' Arce said.'How would your dad feel about this?' McNicholas asked.
